Chapter 2

James watched transfixed, as these trucks were being filled during the cover of darkness. He had no choice, but to bow out of the meeting with the alien race. There was no way he could be in two places at one time. He had convinced Madame President that his work was better suited in the field. He couldn’t go into details, but he was on the cusp of finding something out that would change everything. He was informed by the president that negotiations and talks were going to be long and tedious and might last a few days.

“Those boxes that you see marked, as pharmaceutical medicine. You believe them to be earmarked for those that are suffering on your planet. Victims of what you call cancer and other diseases have been the main selling point of my people to weasel their way into your good graces. What you don’t realize is that they’ve already started to put things into place. That medicine that they speak of has already been inside your homes and your medicine cabinets for a few months. Those that take it for asthma or even allergies are slowly being poisoned. They don’t even realize it and death is almost instantaneous after an incubation period of six months. That time is rapidly approaching and that is the main reason why my people have decided to come here under the pretense of peace.”

James pondered what was being said, but the only way to know for sure was to get a sample and have it analyzed by a private lab that had no affiliation with the government. He knew several of these private labs and one in particular that could probably make sense of all of this.

This installation had a gate that looked like it was a regular fence of wire and mesh. With his infrared goggles on, he could see the crisscrossing lines of some blue laser like add on. “I would like to believe everything that you say, but without proof, I’m pretty much powerless. I need something that I can bring to the president and give her reason to send these aliens back to where they came from. I doubt that they will go willingly, but with you helping us strategically, I think that we can make them realize that fighting is not worth the effort.”

“I know what you’re trying to say and believe me it’s best that we keep things quiet for the time being. As your president has already stated, these negotiations will be time consuming. My people want it that way and exactly three days from today is when people are going to stop and realize that things are terribly wrong. Your morgues will be flooded with those victims that fall quickly and efficiently. I don’t know the percentage, but I’m sure that there are a lot of you that take counter medicine for allergies.” “I could feel my heart beating and my lips are chapped in and in major need of something to quench my thirst. I don’t want anything to drink.  The main protein that makes me ache inside is the stuff that is found within the heated balls of a man’s anatomy. I need to siphon something out of one of these men. I’ve been denying myself, but maybe I don’t have to. James does look good in that uniform, but he probably looks a whole lot better out of it. I don’t think that it would take all that much convincing to make him see me, as a viable conquest.” He was using night vision goggles, but her eyes were accustomed to the darkness like that of a cat. She pointed out that shipments had been going out for months and that this was just another batch about to land on the shelves of some unsuspecting allergy victims.

“I know that there’s very little that I can do to stop what has already been sent out. I can’t stand here and do nothing. I need to destroy the installation, but to do it in a way that makes it seem like an accident.” His gears were going around in his head and then he came up with a suitable solution to his problem. “I think a gas leak and then an explosion will suffice for what I have in mind. Before I try to cut through this fencing, I need to know what the blue lines mean and how to circumvent them.” He couldn’t help but to nonchalantly and casually look in her direction. He glided his eyes over her body from head to toe.

The adrenaline rush of battle was starting to raise its ugly head. He felt a need to do something and to wrap his hands around some suspect. He had to do things in a more clandestine way in order not to be discovered by those that they had targeted. He still wasn’t sure how accurate her information was, but there was really only one way to find out. Destroy the installation and then get a sample and take it back to the only person that he could trust. Dr. Jessica Stevens was his ex wife and the chemistry between them had always been enough to make them forget about the divorce.

There had been many times that he had succumbed to her incessant knocking on the door in the middle of the night. She’d come for a booty call with no words in exchange, except for that of their bodily fluids. The sex between them was amazing and nothing seemed to compare. Those that they had decided take to bed after they called it quits was nothing. He was worried that seeing her would make him feel like he wasn’t in control of his own faculties.

“The wires are basically something that you might call lasers in your own world. I believe that a normal mirror will break the connection and I have brought a few tools of the trade. I’ve learned a long time ago that being prepared is the one thing that every soldier should be taught to do from the moment that they pick up a weapon.” Reina fished through her bag of goodies and came out with something that she had made by herself in her workshop. She placed two mirrors on makeshift tripods on the ground five feet apart from one another. Turning them slightly, she broke the connection and made enough of a gap that they could probably crawl through after the wire was cut.

To this end, James had produced very small wire cutters. He went to work and before he knew it, the hole was big enough for them to make entry. They would leave the mirrors in place to make sure that they could get out the same way that they came in.

“I can honestly say that I haven’t had too many instances that I have gone into battle with a woman. I’ve definitely not gone into battle with a woman from another planet before. This is new territory for the both of us.” The other new territory for him was feeling this excitement and rush running through his veins. It wasn’t just for battle, but it was the need to see her naked. He wondered what she would look like and if her body parts were primarily the same, as those of the human female. “One of us is going to have to take the lead.” His thought were that she would give him the honor, but it appeared that she was hell bent on making this a mission for her own purposes.

“I know my way around these kinds of facilities. Keep back and let me work my magic. The Security System that they have in place is nothing that you’ve seen before. Those beams at the gate were nothing compared to what we’re going to come up against.” “I don’t know why, but I love feeling what it’s like to stand toe to toe with this man. James is not stuck in his ways. He understands what it means to be fully informed, even if it means going against everything that his commander in chief has told him to do. He only wants to do the right thing and that’s refreshing. I think for reward, I should show him the hospitality of my people.” Thinking of her own sexuality, she felt the pulsating lips of her sex beginning to beg for something of an intrusion.

“I’ve been thinking and I don’t think that destroying this installation is going to be enough in the end. We need to find out from a source of mine, if your assumption about this medication is correct. Once I verify that, then we need to find a way to make sure that no other shipments make it down to the planet’s surface. I think that between the two of us we can come up with something.” He saw her put up her fist and that was somewhat like a universal sign to stay put.

She knelt on the ground and began to use her hands to scrape away a blue cylinder that was embedded into the ground.

Feeling his hot breath on her neck was not making it easy to complete her task. She wanted more than anything to spread her legs and rip a hole in the jeans at the crotch. She wanted to feel the touch of his lips and then the stabbing motion of his tongue making her scream in ecstasy. That was only reserved to a few men of her species. She was wearing gloves and when she pulled them off, she showed her fingers to be something unusual. There were crisscrossing veins of blue and then the tips of her fingers began to glow different colors, as she moved them back and forth in the air.”

“I don’t know what you’re doing, but we’re primarily sitting ducks out here. Do what you need to do quickly and then we can move on.” He was trying to rush her not knowing that this was tricky work that needed concentration on a grander scale than those of any human being. The Nexus used almost 60 percent of their brain.

Not bothering to answer him, she started to go through many frequencies of colors and sounds. She finally found the two that was going to work and then she shut down the security measures without announcing that they had done so. She was not the only one that had brought along a bag of necessary supplies. He always carried these things in the back of his jeep, not knowing when he was going to have to utilize his military training in a more destructive way. These days, he was primarily diplomatic. He had hung up his need to hit the dirt with the rest of the young cadets. He realized that he would never lose that part of himself. It was ingrained into him from the moment that he went to boot camp for those many weeks.

“I think we need something that is going to facilitate a larger explosion than just a normal gas line breakage. I have some explosives on me.” He pulled out four blocks of C4. The timers were antiquated, but still something that was used in the field. “Get me to where the gas line is located. I’ll set the timer for 20 minutes and that should give us more than enough time to abscond with a sample.”

“I don’t want anybody to get hurt, but I understand that there is the possibility of collateral damage in any war. These people are just doing what they are told. Some of them probably don’t even know how close they are to being complicit. “He knows how to separate his feelings from that of personal to that of the mission. It does bold well that he understands the need to make a statement. He’s quite the man and in my condition, I feel that overwhelming need to rip his clothes off with my teeth. If I were to allow that part of myself to emerge, I would become more than he can probably handle. Insatiable is one of those things that breathing this kind of air had caused us to feel on a molecular level. It’s the reason why those that are going to sit in the same room to negotiate with those leaders of this country will have these tiny air sensors implanted into their cheek.”

They moved in the shadows, stopping every so often to bypass those personnel that had been charged with the duty to keep this place from being discovered. They made it to the gas line on the other side of the building. “I have a torch, but if I were to use it, I risk blowing us up. This metal is very thick and traditional cutting is not going to make much of a dent. This kind of shielding is not of this earth.” He felt her push him aside, but in a process her breast rub against his back and made a certain part of him begin to take notice.

“I have something here. You probably haven’t seen anything like this. It works on a vibrational force.” Reina placed the device against the metal gas line and turned the dial. She watched very carefully to see that the material started to move and crack like that of brittle. The acrid stench of the propane made her turn and wretch on the ground.

James felt the need to comfort her, but his duty was clear. He placed the C4 blocks underneath the gas line where it had been broken apart by some device that he would love to get his hands on. She was green around the gills and the way that her back hunched and then convulsed made him realize that her sense of smell was oversensitive. Setting the timer for 20 minutes, he pressed the button and then moved over to her.

“I’m afraid that we don’t have time for you to be sick. Do whatever you need to, but I need you at 100%. We need to find some way of making your people leave the premises on their own. When the timer reaches zero, the entire building is going to be incinerated with everybody and everything inside being destroyed.” He had his hands on the small of her back and he was holding her hair, so that she didn’t get any of what she was spewing onto the ground into her hair. “Take a few deep breaths. I don’t know if that’s going to make any difference, but I really don’t know what else to do.”

She finally put her hand back to indicate that she was perfectly fine. “You don’t have to worry about me, James. There are only certain smells that get to me like that.” The one smell that was making her feel that fire down below was his masculine natural scent. She knew that it was coming from his crotch. She could only imagine what it would be like to uncover that intoxicating aroma. “I want him and I think that I sense the same thing from him. I don’t think either one of us are going to be able to stop what is going to happen. I doubt that either one of us wants to. I’ve been on this planet for too long and getting back to the mother ship is probably my best course of action. Unfortunately, going back is not an option and getting out that first time undetected was not easy by any means.

“It looks like the worst is over. Collect yourself for a moment and I will do some necessary reconnaissance to make sure that the coast is clear. We’ll wait, until they go in for another shipment and then I will place another block of this explosive in the back of the truck. They will assume that the truck and the building were too close together to stop the explosive discharge from taking both of them.” James had his hands on her hips and standing behind her like this was not keeping things out of her reach. There was something about her that made him grind against her with his cock pressed deeply into the cheeks of her jean clad ass.
